Dear Father and Mother
Went over yesterday to see about changing my allotment, such as I wrote you in last letter. They tell me that it can not be done. To change an allotment I will have to stop it for a couple of months and then take it out again. If I stop it this month you would not have the money to pay the interest on the mortgage in November.
Did Ed have any pictures taken before he left the states?
Love
Eliza
